    For the love of whatever deity you believe in, FIX the IE6 incompatibility issue. 20% of all Web browsers are still IE6.

    source:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_web_browsers
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Msieshare1

    I've brought it up in several other threads including the official one, but it keeps getting lost in the shuffle. A big banner appears right around the 3.5th topic (yes, .5, half way vertically through the title of the topic) and you cant scroll down through the topics beyond that. This new forum completely abandons 20% of the people using it.

    I can't read any of the text without highlighting it . . . is there a default text color I can change somewhere?

    LOVE the width of the forum though.

    What's the background color code?

    Much better now :) reminds me of the old one, but blue/black, not brown. I like it!

    Still issue with buttons though. Preview, save, and cancel are brown
    HT clerics at their finest:

    hari: can you do mdef debuffs? makes the fight go faster
    naughty_x: waste, I do more damage without them
    hari: ...you do more damage in 2 seconds than reducing mdef by 35% for 4 casters does in 20 seconds?
    naughty_x: is waste, i do more damage

    hari: 3-3 BH goes a lot faster with a sin
    naughty_x: no, only a difference of like 3 minutes
    hari: ...we've been in here a lot longer than 3 minutes already
    naughty_x: your opinion

    why are you still on IE 6...? 7 is alot more secure. theres also 8, and firefox. i could understand if it was like a work or school computer, but you shouldnt be on pw while there to begin with :D.

    overall, im fine with this, just annoyed at a redirect i get to a page that says NO THREAD SPECIFIED every time i edit and save

    Still prefer the original. This is a step in the right direction though.

    Although this looks pretty good now, I still personally prefer the original forums... But oh well, adapt or die, right?

    Kinda like it. Gonna get used to it, but I miss the old forum still. Was way less generic. This one still feels generic, but it's easy on the eyes.

    Lovely, I see black, my eyes are not bloodshot anymore, I can even post despite the headache I have!

    I still prefer the original one, but if the original one was a 10, the past one was a 1 and this one is a 8.5!

    Way to go team!

    It doesn't look right when you view a post singly.

    I was noting that on Vent like 10 minutes ago. "They actually changed it???" Not like I was minding it myself or anything, was just surprised to see they actually changed it upon request.

    Ew, the blue in small doses is okay but as a background that just doesn't look nice.

    Xan, I expected a change sometime within the next few days, not even because of what the GM said, but because of something aryanna said on the maintenance thread b:chuckle

    of course I know i am a minority here but i really dont like this, makes my eyes hurt b:surrender
    I find black backgrounds totally unprofessional and pretty anoying. Also if my eyes get to tired all the text just looks blurred where as light with dark writing i can read clearly no matter
    I still think a biege or cream tone would have been MUCH better, even now i am having to squint to read and all the text looks like there is double
